Embodiment 1

[0047] see figure 1 , the present invention provides a filling liquid filling device, comprising a filling liquid circulation device and an orifice plate 4, the orifice plate 4 has spray holes, the filling liquid circulation device includes two substrates, the substrate is composed of made of any one of silicon-based materials, glass, and polymer materials, wherein one of the substrates has a flow channel, and the flow channel is sequentially provided with a first fluid flow path, a second fluid flow path 21 and a mixing flow path 31 ( figure 1 The dotted line box in the middle is only to illustrate the position of the mixed flow, and is not a component of the filling liquid filling device. The flow channel inside the dotted line box is a mixed flow channel), the first fluid flow channel has a first fluid inlet 1, and the first fluid flow channel has a first fluid inlet 1. The fluid flow path has a branch 110 and a branch 2 111, the branch 110 and the branch 111 are located on...

Embodiment 2

[0050] The present invention also provides a method for preparing a filling liquid filled device, preparing a filling liquid circulation device: such as Figure 5 As shown, first, the flow channel is prepared by soft photolithography, and a photoresist 7 is coated on the silicon wafer 6, and a mask is taken. The mask has a light-transmitting part 8 and an opaque part 9, and the ultraviolet light The mask plate is irradiated on the photoresist 7 to form a silicon wafer positive mold 10 with the channel pattern shown in the first embodiment. Using PDMS material through casting, curing and peeling process to form a figure 1 The PDMS substrate 11 of the flow channel, and then the PDMS substrate 11 and another glass substrate 12 are bonded through a thermocompression bonding process, and a flow channel 13 is formed between the PDMS substrate 11 and the glass substrate 12, and the flow channel 13 has a depth of 10-50 μm, and the flow channel 13 has the same pattern as the flow chan...

Embodiment 3

[0053] The present invention also provides a filling method of electrowetting ink, such as Figure 6 shown. Take a lower substrate 16 with a pixel grid 15, use a pressure syringe pump to simultaneously inject the polar liquid and the ink used for the electrowetting display into the first liquid inlet 1 and the second liquid inlet 2 of the filling liquid filling device, and the polar liquid along Figure 6 In the direction of the solid arrow, the ink flows along the Figure 6 The middle dotted line flows in the direction of the arrow, and the polar liquid confluences with the ink from the branches on both sides at the same time. At the confluence of the polar liquid and the ink, under the action of the interfacial tension of the two-phase fluid, the ink is sheared by the polar liquid into one by one. Continuous droplet, the polar liquid wraps the ink to form a continuous filling liquid, and then when the filling liquid passes through multiple Y-shaped grading channels, it is ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a filling liquid filling device and a preparation method thereof, and a filling method of electro-wetting filling liquid. The preparation method of the filling liquid filling device is simple and efficient. When the filling liquid filling device prepared is used in the preparation process of an electro-wetting display device, electro-wetting display ink and polar liquid canbe filled at the same time to form filling liquid. The problem that oil filling and water filling need to be carried out separately in the traditional display device preparation process is solved. Byadjusting and changing the viscosity, surface tension, two-phase velocity and velocity ratio of two-phase fluid, the formation frequency and volume of filling liquid and the spacing between filling fluid can be controlled. Therefore, the generation of bubbles in the process of filling is avoided, and the electro-wetting display device prepared is of good repeatability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electrowetting display, in particular to a filling liquid filled device, a preparation method thereof, and a filling method of electrowetting filling liquid. Background technique [0002] Electro-wetting display (Electro-wetting Display, EWD) uses an external electric field to control the surface tension of the polar liquid in the display unit, thereby controlling the shrinkage and spreading of the ink, thereby realizing the controllability of the optical switch. Electrowetting display can use the light source in the natural environment, and can only be driven by energy where it needs to emit light. Therefore, it is suitable for outdoor strong light environments, and has the advantages of low energy consumption, short response time, rich colors, and small size. Series advantages. Electrowetting display is a new type of reflective display, which has outstanding performance in terms of energy consumption, ...
